1 Advances in tepary bean (Phaseolus acutifolius A. Gray) genetics and breeding Tim Porch, Iveth Rodriguez, John Hart, Anna Vargas, Juan Carlos Rosas, Mark Brick, James Beaver Feed the Future Innovation Lab for Collaborative Research on Grain Legumes

2 Overview Background on tepary beans Advances in genetics and breeding of traits limiting expansion of tepary production BCMV BGYMV Common bacterial blight Web blight Agronomic/seed characteristics

3 Tepary beans likely originated from the Sonoran desert -Naturally adapted to heat and drought stress Sister species of common bean Similar nutritional and agronomic characteristics Sonoran desert From Wikipedia.com

4 Traditional system of tepary production Art by Leonard Chana in Desert Plants (1983) Tepary field, Coolidge, Arizona, 1983 Burgess, 1983
